King Charles now rules a monarchy that may have to change to survive
A well-wisher kisses the hand of Britain’s King Charles III as he walks outside Buckingham Palace on Friday, a day after the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II. “We have to separate the huge support and love for the queen from the much smaller support for the monarchy,” said Pauline Maclaran, professor of consumer research at Royal Holloway, University of London. “I’ve never liked the monarchy,” Graham Wilson, a 48-year-old tech worker said on his daily commute toward central London on Friday. I don’t think Charles has as many.” Everton Brown, who waited for a train going the opposite direction to meet friends outside the city, said it was an “unusual” moment for his family. When Barbados “took the decision to complete the course of independence” it broke “constitutional ties with the British monarchy” and will establish “the world’s newest republic,” President Sandra Mason said.
